Sensors do much more than simply record and send data to the ECU In fact, most sensors are responsible for actually making the changes to critical systems such as ignition and fuel systems. Electronically controlled systems and a high pressure common rail help to ensure the right amount of fuel is used, and it is burnt effectively reducing the level of NOx and particulates produced. To meet Stage IIIB/Tier 3 equivalent and above emissions standards, electronic control systems are often required to ensure the combustion of air and fuel is controlled accurately.
If you have a Regina-equipped car, use a sensor specifically engineered for Regina systems.
Leaking exhaust manifolds and air injection systems contribute to faulty air/fuel measurements by the oxygen sensor because they dilute the exhaust gas stream with atmospheric oxygen. Actuators are an essential part of electronic control systems in passenger cars and commercial vehicles. The thermal inertia characteristics of the bimetal sensors govern the effectiveness of such control systems.
Electronic ignition systems have no points or condenser, but instead have a reluctor, sensor, and electronic control unit. A major portion of this course consists of a series of eleven vendor supplied hands-on laboratory exercises on rotating electric machines using motors, motor-control systems, and an alternator which produce some vibrations calculated by strain gauge formulas.
This course also covers potential future technologies in electric vehicle propulsion systems. Automotive Systems is an introduction to today’s automobiles, including Hybrid Electric Vehicles. This course also compares the environmental effects of current fossil-fueled energy systems and conversion processes with more sustainable systems using renewable energy and more efficient conversion processes.
It covers the fundamentals of energy conversion including thermodynamics, chemical energy storage in fuels and hydrogen, electrochemical systems for storing energy, battery chemistry in charging and discharging batteries, and the sustainability of advanced energy storage systems. Advanced Energy Storage is an introduction to energy storage systems for electric vehicles. Trucks and trailers equipped with sensors and connected to fleet telematics systems provide insights into the mechanical health of fleets.
The Bosch systems are cylinder specific and you would have to knock within a few crank degrees of a given cylinder firing and be monitoring the timing light attached to that cylinder’s plug wire. If you have Bosch ignition systems you can’t do the whack it and watch it test for knock sensor operation. Editor You can install a generic Bosch or other three-wire heated sensor instead of the more expensive Volvo OEM sensor in Bosch LH systems, but you will have to splice in the connector.
Response: Steve Ringlee ECT resistance cold for LH2.4 systems should be around 6k ohms at 32 degrees F (0 deg C), 2300-2700 ohms at 68 degrees F (20 C), and 200 at 212 F (100 C). Try checking your ECT wiring: Between pins 13 and 5 at the LH ECU (with sensor DISconnected) resistance should be infinite.
